Eternity waiting for a delicious surprise.

Eternity waiting for a Delicious surprise.

Have you ever had a day when you wont feel content until you have that creamy goodness called Ice cream. Freedom has unlocked. Strolling down the street grasping thousands of little coins. Drip, drip, drip. Sweat drips running down my face as is it was a waterfall. Feeling like I was under a big yellow blanket that felt like 99 degrees. Melting like a snow man disappearing in midair. A few meters before me stood a big green building.

Feet frozen in the door looking at all the delicious flavours I had of choosing. Goodie goodie gum drop was most desirable." Come on". Whispered the grumpy old shop keeper. "What would you like" he asked as his glasses were on the tip of his nose and his face crunched up like a bulldog." Goodie goodie gum drop please" I said with a gratifying and obliging voice as well as trying to put a smile on my face but it was impossible. Waiting, waiting, waiting.

Standing out side one foot after the other. My feet were as hot as if I was standing on lave. Silence loomed the area."Slop". Oh no. I was no longer content. This was my worst day of my life. Wondering what tomorrow will be like.

Taste testing.

Taste testing.

Room 3 has been talking about brands and Mr Spice suggested to them that certain brands can make some people behave differently. He used the example of two different kinds of milk and how some people thought one tasted better than the other. So today Room 3 put that to the test and Mr Spice poured a small bit of Coke in one cup marked 'cup B' and a small bit of Pepsi in a cup marked 'cup A'. The students did not know which one and had to guess the one that the coke was in. Easy right?
Well, we tallied up all the results and 20 out of our 28 students got it wrong! They couldn't tell at all and realised that maybe there is more to a product than what they think. Stay tuned for further investigations.
 

Rom 3's Topic.

Room 3's Topic.

Today we started our topic for the next two terms. It is going to revolve around technology and economy with making a product to sell as the final goal. We had a look at advertising for students and parents by looking at lollie (candy) packets. We found that they use bright colours (yellow, red, white), were aimed at children (having cartoon pictures) and sometimes parents (real fruit flavour). It was a good lesson in thinking about how to sell something and who to sell it to.
 

Te Reo.

Te Reo

Today Mr Tai came into room 3 and taught Te Reo to us. We learned how to express our feelings and ask how somebody is feeling in Moari. Here is a snap of the action.
